The hold light on the instrument cluster began to blink this morning. now the transmission shifts very roughly - like a performance transmission... basically crash, bang, screech. i've checked several websites, and have seen reports that this particular transmission has seen this problem commonly. so far mazda has not issued a recall, i think it's about time they consider it. this is still a low mileage car!!!!*ak | |||
